A Toyota master diagnostic technician shows you how to change Toyota hybrid transmission fluid and Hybrid differential fluid In this video I will show you how to replace your Toyota and Lexus hybrid transmission fluid. Also I will show you how to replace the hybrid differential fluid. It is recommended to replace the transmission fluid on Toyota and Lexus hybrids every 60-90k miles ( 100-145k kms) for optimum protection and longevity of the hybrid transmission. The recommended fluid for this replacement is Toyota ATF WS. I don't recommend you use any aftermarket fluids for Toyota hybrid transmissions. Tools needed : jack and 4 jack stands. 10mm hex (24mm socket for 1st and 2nd gen Prius) drain pan 5 quarts for transmission and around 4 quarts for differential of Toyota ATF WS fluid. Fluid transfer pump. Link to Amazon Store : http://www.amazon.com/shop/thecarcarenut *as an amazon associate, I earn from qualifying purchase.
